Multiple Choice

Thanks for making these cookies, but I don't want () right now.

Explanation:
When you’re negating a desire for an unspecified quantity, using any after a negative is natural. I don’t want any right now communicates that you don’t want cookies at the moment, not even one. More would suggest you want a larger amount than you currently have. Some is used in positive statements or offers, not in a outright refusal. Enough means a sufficient amount, which doesn’t fit the idea of not wanting any at all.
